“In March 1812 the British Caribbean press described how the British squadron based at Jamaica had earlier captured a “Haytian frigate.” In response, the paper reported, “the Haytian chief, Bourgelas” had threatened to kill “all the remaining white inhabitants” in his district of the island unless the Royal Navy returned the frigate.”
